New release: The Twilight Realm

The Twilight Realm is a freeware action RPG by a developer who goes by the name Kilin. The premise:

The Twilight Realm is a parasitic world that steals from its neighboring worlds. Kale was stolen as well, and meets Rai, a veteran who was once in the same place as himself. Together they press on to discover the secrets of the Twilight Realm in hopes of stopping the spread of the plague-like world, and returning home.

The developer uses words like “fast-paced” and “bullet hell” to describe the combat, which brings back memories of some of the nastier boss fights from Crystalis. You evidently have a choice of eight character classes to play through the game, as well as other choices that determine the game’s ending.
